Birds flying high ... you know how I DON'T feel
2002-08-13 19:20:25
&^^#@$&^#$&%^*& ... ok now I'm calm. My ass has gone numb and my muscles still hurt. Why? Well I was working on my site and I spent 4:30 hours filling my database which is both mind-numbing and tedious. All in all I pulled it off though and it was a pretty productive day (though it didn't start that way). I got up at 12 and fiddled about on my pc for 2 hours until I got called to come play soccer. I thought "this'll wreck my whole schedule etc. etc.". I went to play soccer but there wer only 2 guys there so I left after 30 minutes. When I came home I watched the first 35 minutes of ghost in the shell (I'll probably finish it tommorow) and edited for two hours adding 4 seconds which still needs plenty of tweaking. Considering other editing days this was quite a lot. After that I had dinner and was invited to go watch soccer, which I declined so I could work on my site. So that's what I've been doing for the last 4:30. My life is so lame -_-
Gonna get vacation photo's back tommorow and see if I can find the pants I've been looking for for a while (black with a red line along the side). So that should get me out of the house ^_^.
I also left a forum I was with for 2 years yesterday, I had outgrown it so to speak it was dying anyway, so whatever...
Last but not least thanks to AD for going to send me his video for my AMV workshop in febuary, I'll be sure to say nice things about you ^_^. -
Ultimate fangirl
2002-08-12 17:29:33
I just spent more than two hours watching Carlos' and MJ's last two documentaries (A-kon and A-expo) and I am now definatley the ultimate fangirl(or litteraly boy). Those things rocked, first Brad DeMoss bashing and then making up for it ... sweet. Plus hot lesbian action ;) Good job I loved it.
I also went jogging today for the first time in 6 weeks or so. It was ok but my muscles are killing me now, god the pain.
Con action is also heating up (though it's in febuary). I will be getting the first video for the workshop later this week (thanks scott). That and a kevin caldwell video makes 2 out of 15, time to start sending out more mail.
Got 1 second done of my video done so far today, I need 4 more (I want to do 5 seconds a day and I should be done on time and all). It looked great, the xth effect I used so far in 15 seconds it's really crazy. There's a little beauty mistake but I'll fix that later, now back to editing I guess. -
Random notes
2002-08-11 16:35:57
Some randomn stuff:
- I spiked my hair yesterday, I should have done it much earlier it looked amazing and even my friends didn't take a piss at me so that must mean it was good.
- Preregistered for A2003 (A con here in the netherlands) today I have to pay 35 euros to get in which isn't bad. Not sure if I'll be staying in the hotel since my dad lives close by and that'll save me 175 euros. I'm also still hoping to enter the MV contest but I have to be one of the first 20 to finish to get in and I'm only up to 15 seconds (yeah I added a scene today this video is going effect crazy!) so it'll be a tight squeeze.
- SMTP is killing me the damn mail() function won't work, if anyone has any pointers they're more then welcome to share...
- I might be getting an internship through my aunt at heineken it means a double in the time I travel (3 hours instead of 1,5) but I get to do some programming (Java or visual basic) and lets hope it pays so I can finally get my much needed PC boost and an electrical guitar.
- Why is the MUSE site (the official one) always down. I'm looking for a pair of pants Matt wore so I posted on the forum, the site went down 2 days ago and is still down grrrrr.
- I am now officially broke, I have 60 euros left *cries*.
- Going to watch citizen kane tommorow or the day after. I also have to watch Hitchcocks Vertigo as to know which film has the same name as my video.
Wow this was longer then I expected ... back to life. -
Guess who's back, back again.

Yes I am back vacation is over and now I can get back to real life again *sighs* it was fun while it lasted. I had a 2 week blast with my friends if I had a scanner I'd put some pictures online and you wouldn't believe what you'd see. Anyway back to real life. I just found out today that Vertigo was the name of a hitchock film and not just any film, but a film that came in as second best film with the critics of hollywood. Man do I feel like:
a. A dumbass for not knowing this.
b. Pretentious for having a video with the same name.
I'm also hoping phade will change my user name soon *looks with beady eyes*. What else can I say, back to work, my current to-do list is massive, here's an idea:
- Create 4(!) PHP/SQL websites the first one HAS to be done by 15 August :(
- Arrange an internship within let's say 2 weeks.
- Get started with driving lessons
- Get cracking on my video which has to be done in 3 months
- Prepare an hour long presentation
Inbetween there somewhere I need to squeeze in a private life *sighs* I am never going to get a girlfriend. -

OMG I've spent all evening reading this:
http://www.inktank.com/AT/
Classy stuff, too bad I've discovered it so late.
I aslo got 12 perfect seconds of Vertigo (which will need virtually no revision) and 2 seconds of well timed but way too fast stuff. The hard part on this video is constantly revising and improving yourself since I don't want this video to use a technique too much...
